Congrats!!!
I think I'm gonna accept UBC since they are strong in epi according to the current student (who kindly answered my questions in this thread). I haven't heard back from McGill so I might just wait another week to see how it goes...
Hi, I'm also wondering if you've had your practicum yet. Do you know if we need to find supervisor and agency ourselves or is it kind of designated?
Thanks!
Hi, I've been thinking to accept the offer!
Just one question- Unlike other schools (having specific streams such as epidemiology), it seems that UBC MPH integrates all streams. So I'm just wondering if I can focus on one theme specifically (perhaps by choosing courses I'm interested in?) I'm quite interested in epidemiology and want to pursue a career in it/ health data analysis.
Thanks so much!!
Just realized you may ask the overall background! I got overall gpa 85+/100 in undergrad. As I said, I also had a master in applied stats. I've been working as a research assistant in a BC health institute for 3 years (with 4 publications).
Got accepted in UBC MPH yesterday!
I told myself come to leave a message in this thread if I got an offer... Waiting was such a torture but checking this thread made me feel I had company...
Still waiting for other schools, but I think I will accept UBC anyway.
